Once on the beach, I found American Oystercatchers, Red Knots, Ruddy Turnstones, and a large collection of gulls and terns.
The birds were restless and the flew at drop of a hat.
I moved slowly down the beach and found this thing that looked like a jelly fish. What kind of jelly fish, Georgia?

A quiet walk
Well, I am a little behind in blogging. Here is an attempt to catch up. Last Thursday, I had a quiet walk on the southwest end of Jekyll. If you don't know this already, it is my favorite place. It is easy to get to the path. As I walked the catbirds were everywhere on the beauty berry.
A monarch also enjoyed the bright purple berries.
Here is another view. Does this help any in discovering what it is?
One of the last birds I found sneaking in the rack was this Piping Plover.
It is good to go on a quiet walk. Each time I do I learn something. I will close with the image of muhley grass. It is the soft feathery purple grass. A Sedge Wren encouraged me to move on and get on with the day.

jellyfish looks like a man-of-war
Yes, Ching Ching it is a man-of-war. Georgia told me she also found them on the beach that week . Donna told me that they wash up when the wind is out to the east. Thanks for helping. It was pretty on the beach.
